Pullout sections, poster supplements, contests, puzzles, and the
funny pages--the Sunday newspaper once delivered a parade of
information, entertainment, and spectacle for just a few pennies
each weekend. Paul Moore and Sandra Gabriele return to an era of
experimentation in early twentieth-century news publishing to chart
how the Sunday paper became an essential part of American leisure.
Transcending the constraints of newsprint while facing competition
from other media, Sunday editions borrowed forms from and
eventually partnered with magazines, film, and radio, inviting
people to not only read but watch and listen. This drive for mass
circulation transformed metropolitan news reading into a national
pastime, a change that encouraged newspapers to bundle Sunday
supplements into a panorama of popular culture that offered
something for everyone.

The Hudson Review has always had an international focus. Travel and
reports from abroad have figured prominently in the journal,
including essays on exotic and picturesque locales, as well as
accounts from war-torn areas and the experiences of exiles. Many of
these are pilgrimages; others are harrowing memoirs. What unites
even the most devastating of these accounts are intellectual
curiosity and a spirit of adventure. Places Lost and Found is a
treasury of distinctive and compelling essays selected from six
decades of the Hudson Review. From a description of the gardens of
Kyoto and a portrait of Syria just before its civil war to
reflections on Veblen and the Mall of America, these essays explore
an array of places that are deeply layered with history and
meaning. The stunning cover photo of the Semper Opera House in
Dresden encapsulates many of the themes of the book: war and its
aftermath, the importance of the built environment in any
discussion of "place," the endurance of civilization and
resilience, and of course the romance of travel.
